VFP - NST - Bhandari, Sagar - 4.10.26
About The Position
This project aims to establish defect-bound excitons and trions in ZnS and ZnSe as controllable spin-photon systems suitable for qubit applications. Quantum defects will be created through controlled low-energy electron and ion irradiation, enabling systematic tuning of defect species, charge states, and spatial distributions. Optical and spin characterization will be performed using optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR), photoluminescence (PL), and time-resolved PL (TRPL) spectroscopy to measure spin coherence times (T2) exciton lifetimes, and coupling strengths. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and conductive AFM (C-AFM) will provide correlative mapping of defect structure and local electronic properties. Dr. Bhandari is a Professor. His graduate student, Audrey Schubert, will be joining him for the duration. Education and Experience Requirements The entirety of the appointment must be conducted within the United States. Applicants must be: Currently employed as a faculty member at an accredited institution. Must be a U.S. citizen or Legal Permanent Resident at the time of application. If accepting an offer, candidates may be required to complete pre-employment drug testing based on appointment length. All candidates remain subject to applicable drug testing policies.
